I'm not gonna tell anyone what to do with their money, but I will advise that there are probably better ways to spent 272 Euros than on cable magic. The stock cables on the Nighthawk are absolute crap, but like $50 will fix that

100% agreement from me. The Nighthawk are easy to drive, they don't need crazily expensive cables. The monolith dual 2.5mm to 3.5mm cable is excellent if you can find one.

Hi folks.

Im looking for a replacement 4.4 balanced cable that works on my nighthawks also on the 1more triple driver over ear.

Im a little bit confused about mono and what connection should I get. Someone could help me?

Ive already got a custom cable, but the 2.5 connection has to be shorter, like the attached file.
The top one is the stock 1more, but its has different connections, why?

Thanks

Mono (TS) 2.5mm connectors are fine for the 1More Triple Driver in my experience. They use TRS connectors for the stock cable, but I don't think the ring is wired so they're basically TS connectors in practice. Cables should work interchangeably between Nighthawk and Triple Driver as long as the barrel below the connector is narrow enough for the recessed ports. For example, I've used this HD700 cable on the Nighthawk when I owned it and now on the Triple Driver:
